lyrics

I'm not okay
But that's alright
I'll spend my nights anchored to the phone
As I'm tearing out my insides
There's one thing that you should know
I lost control
And now nothing feels like home

I'm just a shell of my former self
And I wish
I could live up to the few things I promised
I'm reduced to lying on the floor
And I can't blame her for this anymore

I just don't want to see
The man I've come to be
Pacing this room at night
It wouldn't be so bad if maybe I
Could accept the fact
That some things will never change
And a broken record never gets played

I lie down to pass the time
But sleep escapes me
And the bags under my eyes
They tell me
That I shouldn't lie

Because it’s just a phase
It's just for tonight
Come tomorrow I'll be good again
I'll be thinking of The Upsides
I just don't know how far that will go
Because its just a front
That no one can ever know

My reasons, they don't make any scent
To why I link her with my past experience
I don't want it to happen anymore
It never solved anything else before

I can't live like this anymore
I cant fall victim to the floor
I cant acknowledge that its killing me now

Bend me to break me
You come just to pull me down
And to call me out
Bend me to break me
You come just to pull me down
And to call me out
We all know I'm running from the truth
